PREFACE. 



THE inscriptions contained in this volume were copied in intervals 
of leisure by Mr. John Smith, messenger, Royal Bank, with an 
enthusiasm and care worthy of all commendation. They have 
since been compared with the tombstones, brought up to date, 
and any accidental errors rectified. Mr. Smith is also responsible 
for the Index. 

The present volume deals only with that portion of the burying 
ground lying more immediately round the church, and extending 
up the "knowe" to the south west. The latter part is the most 
ancient portion of the churchyard, and has probably been a place 
of interment for more than a thousand years, as we know there 
has been a church on the present site from very early times. 
That part of the accompanying plan which contains the numbers 
referring to the different " lairs " shows exactly the area dealt 
with in the following pag.es. The oldest part is, as has been said, 
the " knowe" ; at the end of the sixteenth century it was in a very 
neglected condition, " nowt, horse and scheipe " grazed unrestrained 
upon it, but in 1597 the wall surrounding it was repaired. 
Nothing more seems to have been done till 1701, when the ground 
proving too small for the requirements of the parish, an addition 
was made by taking in some land to the west, up to the present 
entrance on that side. Eighty-six years afterwards a further 
addition was effected by which the ground to the north and east 
of the church, then a marsh extending to the shore of the 
Nor' Loch, was drained and to a certain extent filled with earth. 
The churchyard was further enlarged in 18 14 by a narrow strip 
to the north being taken in, and again in 1831 and 1834 by the 
inclusion of a large area of ground to the south-east of the church. 
The inscriptions in this newest portion (only half of -which appears 
on the plan) are not included in the present volume, but it is to 
be hoped that they will be copied later. 

Of the usefulness, from the point of view of family history 
and genealogy, of a work like this, there can be no doubt. Had 
the task been undertaken a hundred years ago or so it would 
have been still more important, because hundreds of inscriptions 
which would then have been perfectly legible must have totally

disappeared, stones and all. It is indeed singular that in a place 
of interment which must have existed as such from the dawn of 
authentic history, there is only one stone (now removed inside 
the church), that of Robert Pont, which dates back so far as 1606. 
Very few indeed are earlier than the end of the seventeenth 
century, though eighteenth century stones are common. 

Lovers of the grotesque, the humorous or the pathetic in 
mortuary literature will find little here to gratify their taste. 
With characteristic Scottish reserve the inscriptions do little else, 
as a rule, than commemorate names and dates. Occasionally a 
note of pathos is struck ; when verse is introduced it is generally 
confined to a portion of a psalm or a paraphrase. Scriptural 
texts are of course very frequent, but it has not been thought 
necessary to reproduce these in the present rendering of the 
inscriptions. Stilted epitaphs, full of turgid encomium, are 
commendably rare. One gentleman does not entrust the task of 
framing his eulogium to his surviving relatives or executors ; it 
is therefore recorded on his monument that " when dying he 
desired that if any epitaph should be written on him it should 
simply be that his conduct in life met with the approbation of 
his own mind at the hour of death." This amazing specimen of 
self-righteousness is however unique in the record. 

It is interesting to observe the somewhat frequent occurrence 
of the burial of old servants with a testimony of the esteem in 
which they were held by their employers. They are often interred 
in the burial place of the family with whom they had spent most 
of their life. 

There are not many specimens among the tombstones 
themselves of outstanding artistic merit. The most elaborate 
monument is a modern one (No. 17), but there are on the 
" knowe " some nicely carved old stones ; one especially has such 
deeply undercut foliage decoration that it will outlast many 
memorials of much later date. Subjected as they now are to 
the devastating influences of the atmosphere in the centre of a 
large city, the tombstones show in many cases evidences of rapid 
decay. Some inscriptions which appear on the following pages 
will in a very few years be illegible. But much depends on the 
quality of the stone and the depth of the cutting. The lettering in 
many has not lasted more than a generation, while that of better 
original workmanship has resisted to a greater extent the ravages of 
time. What corroding influences stones have to combat in this 
situation is well illustrated by the fact that as these lines are being 
written much of the ornamentation on the outside of the church

itself is being renewed and repaired owing to its decay ; this after 
a short existence of twenty years. 

Here lie many members of the best and oldest families in 
Scotland ; some of the ancient nobility and many more of the 
untitled Scottish lairds ; one of the latter, Henry Nisbet of Dean, 
has one of the oldest and most interesting burying places of any 
in a vault below the church itself (No. 376). But many better 
known and more brilliant names occur. Of divines there are those 
of two ministers of St. Cuthbert's who stand out pre-eminent 
amongst their compeers, Robert Pont and " Dainty Davie " 
Williamson ; Principal Lee, the " Archdeacon Meadows " of the 
Book Hunter, is interred in the " ministers' knowe," though never an 
incumbent of the parish ; Dr. David Dickson has a noble 
monument to his memory on the west side of the church, a work 
difficult to excel in its combination of dignity and simplicity ; 
Dr. Macknight, famous in his day as the author of a Harmony of 
the Gospels, and James Alexander Haldane, who, though pro- 
fessionally a sailor, is chiefly known as an enthusiastic worker and 
preacher of evangelical religion, may also be mentioned. Of 
lawyers there is, as might be expected, no lack ; Lords Alva, 
Henderland, Murray, Handasyde and Ardmillan are all worthy 
representatives of the Scottish Bench, while lesser lights of the law 
are innumerable. In medicine, perhaps the most eminent ex- 
ponents who are buried here are Dr. John Abercrombie, the author 
of a work on the " Intellectual Powers " which went through many 
editions, and a physican in great practice in his day, and Andrew 
Combe, physiologist and phrenologist, who was a learned and 
successful practitioner, and who must not be confounded in 
connection with phrenology with his more extreme brother 
George. Amongst authors and scholars one transcendant 
name stands out conspicuous, that of De Quincey, whose modest 
tomb is still an object of pilgrimage to many. Susan Ferrier, the 
authoress of Marriage, Inheritance, and other stories not yet 
forgotten, Mark Napier, the gallant champion of Montrose, and 
whose keen and witty controversial writings on historical and 
genealogical matters may still be read with interest and amuse- 
ment, James Pillans, the erudite professor whose scholastic 
career in Edinburgh extended from 18 10 to 1863, all these, with 
other writers of now forgotten works, are interred in this old 
burying ground. Art is not largely represented ; the name of 
Sir Henry Raeburn occurs as the owner of a burial ground, but he 
is actually buried in the adjoining cemetery attached to St. John's. 
William B. Johnstone, R.S.A., whom some yet alive may remember 



vi Preface. 

as the first official keeper of the National Gallery, lies here, and he 
is not the only Academician. Hieronymus, or Jeremy Stabalini, a 
quaint Italian musician whose features are commemorated by 
John Kay in his Portraits, had a stone erected to his memory 
in 1815. 

Such is a slight record of some of the more distinguished names 
to be found in the following pages. But the inscriptions touch 
life, and especially Edinburgh life, on all points, and can hardly 
fail to be of interest to the explorers of the records of the past. 

The churchyard is kept in good order, but it is evident that 
epitaphs and tombstones are perishing year by year from causes 
over which the superintending body has no control. It is hoped 
that the representatives of those who lie in this ancient place of 
sepulture will see that the monuments of their ancestors are not 
allowed to moulder to decay.

When lo, a whirlwind's instantaneous gust 
Left all her beauties to wither in the dust."

MONUMENTAL INSCRIPTIONS 

IN 

ST. CUTHBERT'S CHURCHYARD,

PREFACE. 



™^HE burying ground of St. Cuthbert's Church has been 
-*- enlarged from time to time. The inscriptions in the more 
ancient portions of it were published in a previous issue by the 
Scottish Record Society. What are now given are those contained 
in the more recently acquired ground. In 1831 the manse, which 
belonged to the junior minister of the parish, with the adjacent 
garden and grounds which lay to the south of the south-east of the 
old churchyard, were feued to the Kirk Session for the purpose of 
being made into a burying ground, and in the same year another 
piece of ground lying to the south of the manse garden and which 
formed part of the glebe was allotted to the same purpose. Three 
years afterwards a small piece of waste ground also forming a 
portion of the glebe was added to those previously disposed of. 

The newly acquired ground did not lie long undisturbed. In 
1841 the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway obtained power to lay 
their lines through it, partly by a cutting and partly by means of 
a tunnel, and in more recent times further ground was acquired by 
the North British Railway to allow of the lines being doubled* 
Such a desecration of a burial ground is fortunately not common, 
but as the track is chiefly underground it does not obtrude its 
utilitarian ugliness into the quiet resting place of the dead so much 
as might have been expected. 

The inscriptions noted in the following pages are, from the 
nature of the case, comparatively modern, and have not the same 
historical interest as those published in the preceding part. But 
there are many names commemorated which will not be soon 
forgotten. The great majority of the inscriptions are to the 
memory of more or less distinguished citizens of Edinburgh. 
Among them may be noted that of a former Lord Provost, Mr. 
Duncan Maclaren, a well known man in his day. The Bench is 



iv Preface. 

represented by at least two distinguished members, Lord Kinloch 
and the second Lord Curriehill ; lawyers are numerous, and of 
Doctors there are not a few. The name of John Philip Wood, 
auditor of Excise, will always be remembered as that of one who 
triumphed over many natural disabilities, and who not only held 
an important Government appointment, but was the painstaking 
editor of a new addition of Sir Robert Douglas's Peerage of 
Scotland. Another literary celebrity may be mentioned in the 
person of Mrs. Grant of Laggan, the authoress of "Letters from 
the Mountains " and other works. Art has a distinguished 
representative in George Kemp, the ill-fated architect of the Scott 
monument. 

None of the ministers of St. Cuthbert's are buried in this part 
of the ground, but several eminent and esteemed clerics are com- 
memorated, generally by lengthy inscriptions, which contrast with 
the usually brief notices on the other tombs. Perhaps the best 
known of these ministers is Professor James Robertson, D.D., the 
founder of the Church of Scotland's Endowment Scheme. His 
step-son, Captain James Sholto Douglass, a gallant and picturesque 
figure whom few can now remember, is also commemorated here. 

It is in the fitness of things that the remains of William Sime, 
along with ten of his grandchildren, should lie in St. Cuthbert's 
Churchyard, of which he was for many years Recorder. He also 
performed a public benefit by writing the "History of the West 
Kirk," in which there is much useful information. Here are also 
buried the members of many families who were intimately con- 
nected with the congregation who worshipped in the parish church, 
such as MacCullochs, Aikmans, Lorimers, Cattanachs, etc. 

As before, the onerous task of copying the inscriptions has been 
carried out by the self-denying labour of Mr. John Smith, who has laid 
posterity under a debt of gratitude to him for having preserved for 
all time these frail and perishable records of a time that is past, but 
which one day will be looked back upon with interest and curiosity. 
His example should be followed throughout the whole country.
